I'm an avid lover of history too. But, perhaps I can appreciate more the comment of the YOU leader coming from a Catholic background myself and growing ever more disgusted by the actions (or inactions) of the Catholic Church especially regarding child sexual abuse. <br /><br />Anonymous 2:22 AM said: "Of course, let's blow up all the pagan idols.

Blow them all up."<br /><br />I think there's more to it than just blowing "pagan idols" up. So in this case, what do such artifacts represent? False gods and a false ideology. Hence, like we're seeing with other competing ideologies like Communism or Islamism the destruction of any competition or its symbols be it physical, cultural, political, financial, religious, etc. just like the Islamic destruction of the Twin Towers or the Buddhas of Bamiyan, etc. It just depends on whose god or ideology is accepted as supreme and dominates an area. We've seen this throughout history time and again all over the world and will continue to see it especially in the near future.

How can one reconcile the OT God, one who is always finding ways to kill and destroy people for every little thing they may do wrong and use fear as a weapon against them against Jesus Christ in the NT that promotes grace and forgiveness? I personally do not believe its the same God. Not if He's the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. The OT does reference other gods and says there is a council, so maybe the fear factor didn't do what was expected for the one in charge at that time. New boss in the house.

(http://www.cogwriter.com/news/church-history/could-jesus-possibly-have-been-resurrected-on-a-sunday/) in which he regurgitates the disproven arguments of HWA that Christ died on Wednesday and rose on Saturday. He cites from RA Torrey and even Jerry Falwell as if that proves the theory correct, but even the latter notes his belief that irrespective of when Christ died He rose on Sunday or the first day of the week (ie Saturday night after the Sabbath had ended). Thiel also quotes an anecdote from Hislop's flawed scholarship as if this irrelevant story confirms the Wednesday crucifixion and Saturday resurrection and yet even Hislop notes, according to a former Catholic priest's testimony that "in that year the resurrection took place, not at mid-day, but at nine o’clock on the evening of Saturday," which again would make it Sunday or the first day of the week, according to the Bible and Jewish reckoning of days.

I understand why christians like Bob think they need to stick their noses into everyone else's private lives and dictate how they must live their lives.<br /><br />Bob thinks JewZeus, an ancient Jewish comic book superhero who lives in the sky is going to be upset with anyone who doesn't live like Bob thinks they should live, and JewZeus is going to punish them horribly.<br /><br />What's more, JewZeus will punish even those who DO live by Bob's rules, if it turns out they aren't nosy enough, and if they don't FORCE everyone else to live by Bob's rules, regardless of what everyone else believe or doesn't believe.<br /><br />The only problem is all that is utterly stupid. Comic book superheroes aren't real, regardless of when the comic book was written. And they certainly aren't going to punish anyone who lives in the real world. Besides, if your favorite comic book superhero is supposed to rain devastation down upon planet Earth, I think you need to re-evaluate whether he's actually a hero or a villain.<br /><br />So mind your own business and stop being a jerk.

You cannot find in Scripture <b>any</b> true prophet of God who was given retarded children by that God. God has withheld from Bob any healing of that son, and has answered "No" every time his severely retarded son has been prayed for and/or anointed. <br /><br />Bob wants us to believe that there is a God who anoints a man with a special double-portion for prophethood, yet who at the same time curses that man with a son who requires constant attention, which, if given, wouldn't leave Bob with enough time left over to play prophet.<br /><br />Hey, maybe that's what's really going on! Bob feels guilty that he doesn't want to devote his whole life to the care of that child, but he knows it would be obviously selfish if he spent his time on his naturopathic business instead of on the defective child. But if God asks Bob to spend time on His Work, as His Prophet, who can argue against God? Being a prophet gives Bob something else to do in good conscience, rather than be a guilty parent burdened with a high-maintenance special needs child.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
